COSC requiremnt for lab course and new Sophia Labs

[dfrecore]

I finished my biology course with Sophia and met the lab requirement using StraighterLine. It's smart to contact your advisor for confirmation. As Rachel mentioned, acquiring ULs (upper-level courses) can be challenging at COSC. There is now a minimum grade requirement for SDC courses and you must complete most of your ULs before enrolling in the capstone course.

Just for reference for others...when did you transfer this into COSC? Interesting that they accepted a science course from Sophia and the lab from StraighterLine. Seems like many schools require the lab to be completed with the course so it's pretty cool that COSC accepted them split up.

UMPI is the only school that we discuss on here that has that requirement.  TESU will allow a lab science to be done separately from the course (like on a BS degree where they require Chem I & II + labs or Physics I & II + labs, they can all be from anywhere as long as they fit the requirements).  Excelsior doesn't have a lab science requirement.  COSC has always allowed a lab science to be from somewhere other than where the course was taken.  WGU doesn't care on their lab requirement.
